The Crimea Bridge attack lured Putin into wasting almost all of his missiles on an utterly failed campaign against Ukraine electric system.
Now a handful of dudes crossing the border causes him to launch even more (most of which were shot down).
Ukraine is able to play Putin’s neuroses like a fiddle, and that is winning them this war.
They’re retaliating for Ukraine’s disrespectful act of defending itself.
“in response to the terrorist attacks of Ukraine”
That’s pretty rich.
Hasn’t the last year been one long retaliatory strike?
Stupid idiot Russians attack Ukraine and call the Ukrainians “terrorists” for having the nerve to strike back.
Uncultured, arrogant barbarians.
More likely, Russia just fired its months supply of longer ranged missiles in one massed attack to break through air defenses. Their problem is, they have used up a lot of weapons by now and have few Kinzhal air launched ballistic missiles. Between attacks, it gives time for Ukraine to rebuild and improve air defenses.
This has gone on for six months, and Russia has little to show for it. Russia simply lacks the ability to really hurt Ukraine through massed missile strikes. The decreasing frequency or small salvo size per strike shows Russia is using up its stocks of weapons it can not easily replace.
The attacks also show, Russia can not use cruise or ballistic weapons on significant battlefield targets. No cruise missile strikes on Ukrainian munition depots, artillery sites, command posts, and nothing to support Wagner in Bakhmut at all.
So what... Zelensky said of yesterdays missile attach that Russia using hypersonic missiles “was a sign of weakness”. (Because it meant they were out of the slower ones.)
But, I’ll bet the Ukrainian’s caught in the crossfire don’t agree.
